当我注释掉我认为不再有用的代码块，但我可能是错的(因此没有删除它们)，我有时会在它们之前

// Wilted celery?

这个想法就像芹菜一样枯萎了，但你还是把它放回冰箱里。我只知道十年后会有人看到这些评论，说什么鬼?

我最喜欢的评论是我的一个同性恋朋友说的。他喜欢用VB标记他所有的TODO注释。净,

'TODO: Matt Damon

有时会提供额外的信息，但通常不是这样。

private int mousycounter = 0; //Not really a counter

首先，在一个大对象的更新的开始:

/*General note to all who tread in the <ObjectName>() code...
 * The SetOriginals() method from the BaseEntity class should be called (and only called) right after the Get() method
 * call as seen above.  Calling the SetOriginals method elsewhere will result in bugs and all kinds of other nasty suprises.
 */

然后在大约200行逻辑之后更新对象:

//Attempt to explain this confusing mess of code:
//First time you save an actual absence this is what happens:
//0. The first save saves to the <TableName> table (among other things). (Fig. A)
//1. The <CalculationMethod> method is called next which inserts to the <OtherTableName> table. 
//(This is the table that keeps track of credits to the case.) (Fig. B)
//2. So then you have to call <UpdateCalculations> to move the <TableName> records to the <ThirdTableName> table. (Fig. C)
//3. Then you go back and run calculations since you have the debits table (<ThirdTableName>) populated. (Fig D.)
//4. Then a final save to save the calculations back to the case. (Fig. E)
//Yeah, I know what you're thinking:  this sucks. 10/01/07 XXX

开发商是对的……这太糟糕了!

//If only humans could leave things be.

//Please do not edit this code, 
//if you do you wont go to jail, you wont go directly to jail, 
//you wont pass go, you wont collect 200 dollars

我刚刚在一些遗留代码中发现了这个..
